Charli XCX Is a Demonic Brat in Takashi Miike’s ‘Untitled Tokyo’

Last year, we learned pop star Charli XCX would headline and produce a new horror flick from Japanese filmmaker Takashi Miike. What first sounded like an odd team-up is now… well, still odd, but it sounds like it’s got the potential to be fun as hell when it comes out.

Per Deadline, the film’s officially dubbed Untitled Tokyo and sees XCX “possessed by a violent, tortured spirit.” She’ll play Katie, one of three best friends who’ve reunited in Japan after years apart. Unfortunately, their girls’ trip takes a turn when a spirit takes her over and hell breaks loose. Production for Untitled will begin in March, and now we know who else is joining the cast alongside Charli: Supergirl star Milly Alcock, Walking Dead’s Norman Reedus, and Show Kasamatsu (Tokyo Vice). Actress-model-singer Kiko Mizuhara (Attack on Titan) will play the spirit at the heart of it all.

Untitled Tokyo marks the latest acting turn for Charli XCX, who featured in last year’s 100 Nights of Hero and in this year’s The Moment (which she also wrote and produced) and The Gallerist. This also isn’t her first time with horror, as she’ll be in the Faces of Death remake arriving in April. We’ll have more about Untitled Tokyo as news emerges.
